MedPro Cards? 1

[Ronster]

We are using VoIP and have about 50 agents at one remote site using softphone R3V2.03

Do we require more than one MedPro card?
If so, how many IP agents can one MedPro card support?

Any help on what the MedPro actually does would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,


Ronnie

The TN2302AP media processor circuit pack can be connected to either a 10BaseT or 100BaseT
network. However, to fully utilize the port capacity of the TN2302AP circuit pack, it must be
connected to a 100BaseT data-switched network port and use a Category 5 compliant cable. If
auto-negotiation is not used, please set the switched port to 100Mbps / full duplex. This circuit
pack is a media processor board that converts analog voice to data packets, supports up to 64
simultaneous ports using G.711 (32 ports using G.729/723 and somewhere between if using a
mix of G.711 and G.729/723), and dynamically switches between codecs.
Perhaps the most exciting feature of this circuit pack is the ability to shuffle or hairpin calls. To
shuffle means to reroute the voice channel connecting two IP endpoints so that the voice, which
previously was endpoint to DEFINITY to endpoint, now goes directly from endpoint to endpoint.
This also works in reverse for reasons such as conferencing, placing on hold, etc. Hairpinning
reroutes the voice channel connecting two IP endpoints so that the voice goes through the
TN2302AP board in IP format, without having to go through the DEFINITY TDM bus. Both
endpoints must use the same codec for this feature to work. Hairpinning and shuffling mean less
delay between endpoints and fewer resources used on the TN2302AP. A shuffled call that is IP-to-
IP incurs no delay or transcoding whatsoever from the DEFINITY ECS or IP600.

Thanks Brandaris,

That was just what I was looking for. We are using G.729.

In you're experience do you find much loss in quality using G.711? And, if I'm not being too much of a pain, how much bandwidth would you recommend for 50 agents. On

http://www.erlang.com

the calculator says that 50 agents using G.729 should use 1200kbps.

Thanks again,

Ronnie

Could I have a copy of that, too. I have a G3si V9.5 with about thirty VoIP phones that will expand to about 60 phones.
